In Colombia, indigenous leaders and organizations claim that among the problems that indigenous youth face in relation to their participation in conventional higher education there is the potential loss of their indigenous identity and their acculturation (Muñoz 2007; ONIC, et al. 2004; Green et al. 2004). In the light of these claims, this thesis explores how indigenous students experience their

Resultatet av undersökningen visar att revisorernas fastställda väsentlighetsnivåer skiljer sig relativt mycket åt (den lägsta väsentlighetsnivån är 600 000 kr och den högsta är 1 250 000 kr) samt att det finns både skillnader och likheter i deras förda resonemang. Likheterna kan urskiljas i respondenternas arbetssätt och att de förhåller sig mycket till ISA. Orsaker till skillnaderna visar sig The result of the survey shows that the auditors determine materiality levels differently (the lowest materiality level is 600 000 kr and the highest one is 1 250 000 kr). There are both differences and similarities in the auditors´ argumentations. The similarities can be seen in auditors´ working process, during which they are regulated much by ISA. On the one hand, the differences can be expla

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between mentalization, emotion dysregulation and extent of resolved trauma in adult participants who have experienced traumatic events during childhood. Based on the theory of mentalization it was anticipated that the ability to reflect upon mental states could help make sense of and integrate the traumatic event in the person’s life hi

Purpose: We wish to gain a deep knowledge about product development processes in relation to the aspect of time in companies in highly technological and rapidly changing markets. The purpose is to establish how organizations better can employ time as a resource to make the product development process more efficient. Conclusions: Information we gathered from theory and primary data show that inform

Objectives To explore how mandatory reporting to the supervisory authority of suicides among recipients of healthcare services has influenced associated investigations conducted by the healthcare services, the lessons obtained and whether any suicide-prevention-related improvements in terms of patient safety had followed. Design and settings Retrospective study of reports from Swedish primary and

Dark matter is abundant in the universe, yet its composition and nature are unknown. If dark matter consists of new particles with nonzero interactions with Standard Model particles, it could be produced and detected or inferred by collider experiments. This thesis describes searches for dark matter models with new spin-1 force mediators coupling dark matter to quarks, using the ATLAS detector at

Aims and objectives: To describe ways in which children's best interests were observed to be expressed in paediatric settings during their hospital visit.Background: The best interests of the child are embodied in national and international legal systems, although the definition remains problematic. The child's limited autonomy mandates duty bearers to have both a child perspective and the child's

On the position of filmmaker as feminist, this article aims to investigate the documentarian’s strategies of dealing with the cruelty in activism and the cruelty suffered by women in Chinese context. I will firstly analyse the protagonists’ shock from We the Workers (2017), which shows the tension between activism logic and cinematic representation of activist. This tension was eased by recognisin

The study describes findings from a community-based participatory and challenge-driven research programme, that aimed to improve health equity through a health promotion platform in an ethnically diverse low-income neighbourhood of Malmo, Sweden. Local residents, together with lay health promoters living in the area, were actively involved in the planning phase and decided on the structure and con

Objectives: Previous research suggests that governments usually gain support during crises such as the Covid-19. However, these findings are based on rating scales that only allow us to measure the strength of this support. This article proposes a new measure of how voters evaluate Prime Ministers (PM) by asking for descriptive keywords that are analyzed by natural language processing.Methods: By

This paper presents a new τ-lepton reconstruction and identification procedure at the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider, which leads to significantly improved performance in the case of physics processes where a highly boosted pair of τ-leptons is produced and one τ-lepton decays into a muon and two neutrinos (τμ), and the other decays into hadrons and one neutrino (τhad). By removing th

Presented within the Urban Architecture Conference: In the Search of Urban Quality, Urban Form and Urban Life at Lund University (2018), this contribution forms part of a broader exploration into the relationship between architecture, urban design, and contemporary urban conditions.The presentation introduces a pedagogical and design-oriented framework for engaging with urban architecture, structu

Organizations’ external environment is full of business ventures. Individuals play ‘in role’ and ‘extra role’ at the same time within the organizations. They are also located in an online environment where they participate and communicate using online social tools. Moreover, individuals within organizations seldom know who are likely to provide the right information or knowledge. The "who kno

A sensitive method for the detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) using a flow-injection capacitive biosensor is presented. SEB was purified from a crude culture filtrate of Staphylococcus aureus through three chromatographic steps. The first two steps were based on ion-exchange chromatography, and the last step was carried out on a gel filtration column. The SEB recovery values after the

Retailing Retold offers an alternative approach to the analysis of how international retail images are translated across national boundaries. The approach extends the view on image in previous research as an instrument for monitoring the effects of marketing strategies on consumers’ perceptions of the retailer. Instead, it suggests that the usefulness of image resides in its ability to capture the

The Baltic Sea Region is rapidly becoming one of the world’s more competitive regions. The region is capitalising on its strengths and making the most of its diversity to stimulate innovation, build a strong pool of skilled labour and foster entrepreneurship. A deep spirit of co-operation and integration has led the Baltic Sea countries to set up ambitious governance frameworks to pursue economic

This article deals with an archaeology of Reformation in medieval Denmark. The change from Catholic to Protestant confession, which took place in 1536, ha,,; not been subject to elaborate investigation by archaeologists. The main question is, whether material culture reflects differences in the lifestyle between people possessing a Catholic or Protestant belief The focus is to find out how the dif

A critical review is presented on the state of knowledge and calculation capability for coastal overwash. Overwash and overwash deposits (washover) accompanying hurricanes and severe storms can devastate coastal communities and habitat, but in many areas these processes are essential for maintaining the integrity of barrier islands while creating new habitat. This review covers general studies of

Straw was evaluated as a biofilm carrier in the methanogenic stage of the two-stage anaerobic digestion of crop residues. Three reactor configurations were studied, a straw-packed-bed reactor, a glass packed-bed reactor and a reactor containing suspended plastic carriers. The reactor with the packed straw bed showed the best results. It had the highest methane production, 5.4 11(-1) d(-1), and the
